The most widely played reeds in the world with a superiority proven over the years, these reeds suit all styles of music.

Traditionals are known for their excellent response in all registers, allowing apianissimo attack in even the highest notes.

They are also extremely flexible, allowing the legato or staccato execution of large intervals while maintaining a richness of tone that gives body and clarity to the sound, which is a hallmark of Vandoren reeds.

Bb clarinet V•12 reeds are manufactured from cane tubes with the same diameter as cane used for alto saxophone reeds. As a result, they have a thicker heel and are cut on a longer palette with a slightly thicker tip than the Traditional. The longer palette means that more of the reed is vibrating, resulting in a deeper, richer sound.The thicker tip gives body to the attack and also increases thelongevity of the reed.The introduction of the 3½+ strength allows a smaller and more specific gradation, resulting in reeds that are more consistent within the same strength.The V•12 has expanded to include the Eb and Bass clarinet reeds, which offer a warm, rich and powerful sound.

Designed from thicker cane with a heel taper very similar to German-style reeds, the 56 rue Lepic emits a rich, centered, and extremely pure sound while providing maximum stability and quick response in all registers. Strength gradations are smaller and more specific, resulting in reeds that are very consistent.

The Bb clarinet V21 reed combines the shape of a 56 rue lepic reed with a V•12 profile.This unique combination makes all registers of the clarinet more accessible with warmth and a depth of sound. It will allow you to play with amazing presence and immediate response.V21 is the perfect reed for performances that require the ability to handle large interval leaps efficiently with an even and rich tone.

Building on the success of the V21 reed for Bb clarinet, we have extended the line, using the same sonic design, for Bass and Eb Clarinet.

The Black Master reeds have a wider and thicker cut than the White Master reeds.They are available in two different models:• The Black Master reedIts cut is designed for Austrian mouthpieces. Thanks to its response and tone characteristics, this cut can also suit the Boehm system mouthpieces.• The Black Master Traditional reedThis cut, in the tradition of the Viennese school, is designed for very closed Austrian mouthpieces, with a long facing.

The White Master are designed for German clarinet players.They are available in two versions: • Traditional version• New version: an evolution of the White Master reed, designed to suit more specifically the characteristics of the new generation of German mouthpieces (open mouthpieces with long facing).

The White Master range now includes Eb clarinet reeds. Easier sound emission, especially in the upper register of the clarinet. These reeds are suited to both German and Boehm systems.

Bb• Matches perfectly with German mouthpieces and combines very well with Vandoren D2, D4 and D6 mouthpieces.• Slightly wider reed tip than the White Master and White Master Traditional reeds.• Outstanding, stable intonation.• Excellent tone quality and light response.• Large tonal dynamics.• Noise free tone production.

Similar to the 5RV Lyre but with a larger tip opening and longer facing, it guarantees flexibility and roundness. This mouthpiece has an exceptional quality of sound.

The difference between “Profile 88” and Traditional mouthpieces is in the exterior angle of the beak. Therefore, the musician is free to choose the model which suits his purpose in terms of best playingposition, easiest sound projection, greatest playing comfort, and the most controllable and precisearticulation.

Vandoren has developed the “13 series” mouthpiece specifically for American clarinetists using A440 pitch.Four models have been originally developed with specific facings to this series: the M13, M13 Lyre, M15 and M30 mouthpieces.The “13 series” range also encompasses other models (traditional facings): 5RV, 5RV Lyre, B45, B40, B40 Lyre and M30 Lyre.

Saxophone reeds

Traditionals feature the thinnest tip with the thickest heart, resulting in crisp articulation with a full, dark sound.

Produced from cane selected for its specific proportions, the V•12 reeds have a thicker heel and are cut on a longer palette with a slightly thicker tip than the Traditional. The longer palette means that more of the reed is vibrating, resulting in a deeper, richer sound. The thicker tip gives body to the attack and also increases the longevity of the reed.

This unfiled reed offers a clean sound, a precise articulation and a great ease in achieving large interval leaps.

Now with 7 different cuts available, Vandoren saxophone reeds offer something for everyone. From bright and edgy to dark and rich, saxophone players can hone their sound with Vandoren.

A relative of the JAVA reed family, the JAVA “Filed - Red Cut” is the first file cut Vandoren reed for jazz and popular music. It also benefits from a completely new design.

JAVA reeds are more flexible than Traditionals and V16s and vibrateon a long palette, creating a bright sound with immediate response.

ZZ reeds combine the medium-thick heart, spine, and rounded tip of the V16 with the flexible palette design of the JAVA, giving the player a rich, colorful sound with quick response.

V16 reeds have a medium-thick heart (more than JAVA but less than Traditionals), with a profile designed for producing a strong attack witha deep, rich sound.

This reed is designed to produce a quality of extremely pure sound due to a very thin reed tip (the area of reed with maximum vibration), balanced by a solid vertebral column (more cane in the area which climbs gradually to the heel).

The success of V•12 reeds in the clarinet world for 25 years has led us to transpose their characteristics and advantages into the saxophone world.With its very precise attack, homogeneous timbre in every register, controlled high notes, warm and velvety sound, this new reed offers exceptional possibilities.

Tenor

Baritone

Launched in 1993 to answer the demand of some American jazz musicians (a JAVA with even more wood). The V16 has a thicker tip than the traditional Vandoren reeds and a longer palette.Sound: more brilliant, more percussive, particularly well adapted to all the new styles of music.

Developed in 2002, the ZZ jazz reed is immediately responsive without sacrificing the brightness or tone quality required for this style of music.The unique relationship between the heart and tip provides extraordinary color, great response and a durable life.

The driving force behind the JAVA “Filed - Red Cut” design was to offer more sonic possibilities to musicians while keeping the qualities of the original Java.More flexible than its elder version, with a little more tonal body, the JAVA “Filed - Red Cut” offers a full, rich, centered sound and excellent projection with an extremely precise attack.

Developed in 1983 for jazz and popular music. A thicker tip and a more flexible palette* than the Traditional reed allow vibration over a larger surface area with maximum elasticity.This type of vertebral column gives the musician much greater playing flexibility, as the resultant elasticity zone is very large. * Palette: zone where the waves are propagated with the greatest range. From the tip, the waves are absorbed further in the JAVA reed.
